I just bought a 5’ piece of 3/16-wall 2” square tube and 4’ of 1 1/2” that fits inside to fab up some rear tie down anchors, and it was almost $50!
Steel is getting expensive. I’d reuse what you can.
You probably got at at metal fabricator not from metal supplier.
In CA I bought tubing from metal fabricator as well, but for 4 ft of 3" square they charged me less than $40 and that with almost 10% sales tax.
Sounds like WA has higher markups at local shops.
